Scott P. Seagren

Scott is a trusted advisor to hundreds of successful leaders who are committed to developing a healthy, highly productive culture and sustainable workforce. He is passionate about transforming complexity into creative opportunity and evolving conscious leadership one courageous conversation at a time.

Soon after graduating from Northwestern, he jumped into Chicago's commodities trading pits, where he was a professional market maker and broker for nearly 20 years, galvanizing his calm demeanor and deep inner strength in response to intense emotions and in-your-face competition. In 2004 Scott left the trading floor to leverage his understanding of people and how they interact with each other – the human capital component of business – into a full-time practice.

Scott is trained and certified as a mediator, professional coach and group facilitator. In 2010, he launched a CEO roundtable in Chicago through Vistage Worldwide. He also delivers team and leadership development workshops for corporations and groups where communication, leadership and conflict issues obstruct authentic conversation. The results are better listening, quicker resolutions and higher team productivity.
